Degree Converter


Degree is a unit of measurement of plane angle. One full rotation is considered as 360 degrees. The degree is also referred as degree of arc, arcdegree or arcdegree. The specific reason of choosing degree as a unit of rotations and angles is pretty unclear, but as per historical facts, 360 is approximately the number of days in a year. The symbol for Degree is deg.
Use this Degree converter to change values into other angle units. Enter a value, choose the target unit, and review the converted result without applying the conversion factor by hand.
